VB Close Up: Preplanning with VB

Hey there VillaFolx!

I hope you are having a great holiday season filled with peace and happiness. Today I am showcasing a before-the-pen week in my Classic HP using VB stickers and VB washi tape from the Merry Minimalist Advent VBKit.

First, I am kind of obsessed with the sticker planner from the Advent VBKit! I was so excited to write my name in it and start using it. I’m loving the sticker release paper and the clear pockets. I’ve already stored all of my VB sticker sheets in it.

I have pre-planned for the week of December 28th to January 3rd using the VB page flags and my Sakura micro perm.

After that, I used a sheet of the sticker release paper to place all my stickers for the week on it. The sticker release paper is double sided. So you can put stickers in the front and back.

Using this to pre-plan with stickers is going to be a big help for me. Especially if I am planning on-the-go. I can take a couple of minutes to pull stickers and it’ll be ready to use.

Now that I have all my stickers pulled, it's time to plan! I like to start the week off with a full box sticker.

I used the skinny VB washi tape to add a top and bottom border to the full box sticker. I place all my full box stickers down first.

After all my full box stickers are placed down, I go in with the half boxes, quarter boxes, check boxes, and decorative stickers.

I like to layer stickers and washi for a fun look! I also like to plan outside the lines. So you’ll see a few stickers overlapping the lines printed on the page.

I like to use a lot of stickers but I also need a lot of white space. The stickers keep me visually interested in my planner and the white space keeps me organized and productive.
